Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoon minced shallots

2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon OR 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon, crushed

1 1/2 teaspoons tarragon or red wine vinegar

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

16 jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined, with the tail segment left on

8 strips smoked bacon, cut crosswise in half

Directions

For the Béarnaise sauce:

Combine the mayonnaise, shallots, tarragon, vinegar and pepper in a small bowl.

Grill, covered, turning once, until the bacon is crisp and the shrimp is firm, about 8 minutes.

This is truly mouth watering. Two of the best flavors shrimp and bacon. One of my favorite appetizer.

Hey Elaine...made this today as a lightish lunch, rather than an appetizer, and served it with just a richly dressed green salad. Very good! I didn't need the toothpicks, and I used the red wine rather than the tarragon vinegar. Very nice and easy. Thank you! :)
